Colnago C64 frame set 2019 Disc and Rim brake

We are officially Colnago dealer. This is the new C64 Colnago.

The new model of the C60. This frame is complete handmade in Italy.

All the tubes of the c64 are lighter, larger and more durable. The C64s tubes and lugs are made of the finest carbon fiber, making it a unique frame in the world one that cannot be compared to anything else. In the C64s design lies Ernesto Colnagos knowledge and experience, gained from a lifelong pursuit of cycling perfection. The C64s fork has been fully redesigned, with an external rib-shape to give the rider more comfort (front stiffness) but also to increase the ride-quality (side stiffness).

To increase the stiffness and strength, weve created an internal rib in the steerer tube, which also holds the nut for the top cap and eliminates the need for an expander-plug. The C64 Disc fork will feature a C/D steerer tube shape, where the brake housing can run from the stem for a neat assembly. The thru-axle, while still 12mm like the C60 Disc, is now a threaded system to further reduce the weight of the bike. With the same shape as the disc fork, the rim version houses the pivots for the direct-mount brakes which offers plenty of tire clearance. The fork length was increased by 5mm to be able to accomidate larger tires yet still have a hollow upper structure, to lower the weight but still retain the same stiffness and performance as the C60 fork.

Dropouts are now full carbon replacing the alloy dropouts used on the C60. Head Tube (More side stiffness). While still retaining the same overall shape as the C60, the C64s headtube features a new technology which allowed us to reduce the thickness and lower the weight. The shape was also revised to increase side stiffness. As was the entire frame, the headtube was changed from an outer 3k carbon finish to a lighter UD finish. Based on the experience we had with the Concepts headset, we wanted to bring that technology to this model as well.

So we revised the upper cups, which are now made of a special polymer composed of carbon fiber and a special mix of nylon and elastomers. Down Tube (Increased the torsional stiffness). Starting with the design of the heavily shaped C60 downtube, we revised the bottom portion, which is now a bit narrower to match better with the rear triangle for a perfect balance. To increase the torsional stiffness and maximize the integration of components, the downtube features a recessed bottle cage area which creates two long ribs around the middle of the downtube. Regardless of the fact that the C64 was not designed to be a purely aerodynamic frame, the recessed bottle cage gives a clear aero advantage over a traditional mounting position.

Cable stops for mechanical shifting are now located on the downtube, in a tucked position behind the headtube. Seat tube (Hidden integrated clamp). Probably the most striking difference between the C60 and the C64 is that the seat tube meets the seat tube lug to form a single piece. This technical feature increased the stiffness of the frame, while keeping the weight low.

The monostay is no longer straight either, but is conified to create the best possible gluing surface. Of course, this means we now have 14 different seat tubes for all 14 sizes!

Bottom bracket (Best shifting performance). Designed around our proven ThreadFit82.5, which is basically a PressFit with removable base sleeves, the bottom bracket lug is now more complex than ever.

The cable guide, which was typically a bolt-on plastic part, is now molded into the lug to save grams as well as to offer the biggest possible radius for the best shifting performance. Another small detail is the hex shape on the side of the downtube insert, which is our datum point to check anything during the bonding of the frame and, later, the QC process. Another striking difference is the asymmetric insertion of the chainstays, with the left one being much wider. While lower weight has so far been the key point of the new frame, tire clearance is another important factor we had to address while designing the new C64. The frame has a clearance of a 36.5mm diameter at a 345mm radius, which means you can use all 28mm tires with plenty of room to spare. Brakes are the limiting factor here, so the disc version has a bit more space. The item "Colnago C64 frame set 2019 Disc and Rim brake" is in sale since Friday, February 9, 2018.
